Any major empire overhaul mod recommendation?

[mommy misato]

playing empire as of right now is so punishing rather than rewarding that's its not funny, would be nice if there's a mod that overhaul the empire that i know of

Depends on what you mean by overhaul exactly.

This is one of the best looking empire mods that I have seen;

But there's also

Grand Order of the Reiksguard

Heirs of Sigmar

And probably some others I'm forgetting.

I can't vouch that they are all working perfectly, but I have not noticed any crashes so far while running all 3 in singleplayer.

For SCM Marienburg you will also need;

Mixu's Unlocker

Mod Configuration Tool

Immortal Empire Expanded

But those three mods are basically a must have at all times even without other supplementary mods.

thank you how would you rate Heir of sigmar i once tried it long ago and never really like it, i dont remember the reason why and yes mainly i want mods that overhaul empire's factions mechanics.

Wait I forgot, Grand Order of the Reiksguard is included in Heirs of Sigmar, so you don't need to have both on, just Heirs of Sigmar for the lot, or if you only want the Grand Order, just use that alone.

In terms of my rating, I think it's cool, some great work by one of the TW modding greats (Xoudad). People's opinions will vary though, so I guess you'll have to test it again for yourself to find out. If you really didn't like it in TWII though, you might find the same issues here, but who knows.

Sigmar's Heirs, an Empire Overhaul - Nordland Update (though SFO is good all round , this is the best empire overall IMHO)
Dark Omen & Shadow of the Horned Rat, Heroes and Regiments of Renown ( my favourite mod of all mods)
Remove Imperial Authority Cost when Confederating ( stop the crippling effect of confederation)
Waka's Campaign Land Battles (WCLB) Map Pack ( stop playing the same battle maps over and over again)
More Regiments of Renown Pack ( not just for the empire)
Dynamic World ( cosmetic but , so much better than vanilla )
Altdorf's Company of Honor, Uniforms and Heraldry of the Empire Regiments of Renown Series ( additional unit)
Braganza's Besiegers, Regiments of Renown Series (RoR) ( additional unit)
Warrior Saints of the Empire (super strong late game units but capped ,makes upgrading warrior priest buildings useful)
AoR Mercenaries - Loreful ( I prefer Gotrex's army just dwarfs, also helps replenish armies without traveling half the map)
Guns of the Empire (New units added and Updated for 4.0) ( tons of units ..maybe a bit overpowered here and there)
Greater Garrisons by Zorbaz ( stop the empire being smashed as easy , not much but it helps)
Steam Constructs of the Empire ( watch a steam tank with legs swing a giant halberd !)

Just played some Sigmar's Heirs and Guns of the Empire. Both add lots of flavor which is a huge plus for narrative campaigns, but the play balance is pretty bad...even with the current Empire issues it turns a VH campaign into easy even for average players. Crank up the difficulty and enjoy a lot more flavor.

Only thing sad about current Sigmar's sons is the dwarf embassy isn't in-game yet, where you could recruit basic dwarf troops (good flavor for Empire campaign).

There's a mod that is something like the French revolution (forget name) which is fun for one playthrough, but is about as unbalanced as you can get so no replayability.

Southern Realms isn't "Empire", but it's Empire adjascent, and has some nice factions to play with (think Spansh Conquistadors, another one is a Vampire with a really good PR system to be thought of as a hero (non-vampire) by his people). Very fun.
